  1. id almost say you need a couple magnets per leg depending on the size of the wing. there is a lot of force on them when you are flying under the canopy, it may start to slip off in flight

  2. Doug, ill give you credit for giving the opportunity to a lot of jumpers to try out a wingsuit, but that's about all the credit.

    You act like a school yard bully throwing punches all day long and enforcing rules in the name of safety that dont actually make sense. Instead of instructing people how to jump you limit them in order to be "safe." You have always pushed the Phoenix-Fly line as hard as you could, throwing any other suit manufacturer under the bus first chance you have. You're like a school yard bully that finally got hit back and you ran to the teacher. maybe you should see the recommendation of Matt to not learn from you as a message instead of a credit. Just b/c your school has been established and you made your little army, doesnt mean you are the end all be all.

    This rant of yours sounds like your way to put down the competing wingsuit school that just recently opened. I really hope this is not the case, but knowing you, I wouldn't be surprised.

    Squirrel is the new up and coming wingsuit brand, in one season they have taken the market by storm and have released some awesome products and flown some insane lines. Instead of trying to be a wall, lets try and help out the entire community and further the tech and experience. People will go to Elsinore with a Squirrel Swift to learn how to wingsuit, figure out a way to teach them, dont try and sell them a different suit.

    If anyone happens to be at FLL right now, please shoot me a message if you'd like to hang or have time to meet up for a drink or dinner or something. You'll probably keep me from getting arrested.

    Thanks.

  5. FWIW my progression:
    *numbers are purely Sky jumps.
    birdman intro: 20 jumps
    P2: 125 jumps
    V3: 100 jumps
    Aura: 15

    Not sure if its the best progresion, im sure i could have added a tony suit in there between the v3 and the aura but the transition and learning curve was minimal. the Aura is really easy to fly.

    Just keeping the thread active as i would love to hear from people who have a bunch of experience on p2 and have upgraded to either p3 or swift, and the extent of the improvement. Ideally in a base environment as i am still trying to figure the next step up for me with 200 p2 jumps and am trying to get another10 % in performance to make some jumps a bit more doable e.g sputnik. Thanks



    with 200 jumps i think a more fun progression might be a ghost 3 or havok. Even moving up to a v-series suit would be "safe." a p3 or swift would not be much of an upgrade, if you are going for an extremely slow progression, then cool. no judgements, but thought you should look into something bigger.

    Thanks for the input guys, what size canopies are the suiters on at elsinore? do you only allow 150+ for wingsuits?

  8. Here is my dilemma, I am replacing my bridle/PC b/c i have a big wingsuit now and want a 9' bridle and my old PC is near dead.
    I jump a sabre 1 150
    Do i get a 28" PC so it can grab more with the wingsuit and risk having hard openings without the suit.

    Or

    get a 24" as recommended for the size of the main.
